Sara Collins is the author of The Confessions of Frannie Langton, winner of the Costa First Novel Award in 2019.  I mix up a special cocktail for this incredible debut, looking for something that complements the novel's setting, Jamaica and London in the 1820s.  Then we take a deep dive into this "beautiful and haunting tale about one woman’s fight to tell her story.  The Confessions of Frannie Langton leads you through laudanum-laced dressing rooms and dark-as-night back alleys, into the enthralling heart of Georgian London."
